- Examples of the water soluble polyvalent metal salt used for the preparation of the developer employed in the present invention include chlorides, salts with inorganic acids such as sulfuric acid and nitric acid, salts with organic acids such as oxalic acid and acetic acid, and the like of polyvalent metals such as magnesium, calcium, aluminium, zinc, tin, nickel, barium, strontium, cadmium, manganese, cobalt, chromium, and the like.
- The heat fusible material used in the present invention is a solid which is colorless at room temperature, or is almost colorless to such an extent that no feeling of color development is substantially given when impregnated in the heat sensitive recording sheet, and is such a material as to have a sharp melting point at a temperature suitable for recording on reproduction recording, that is, at a temperature in the neighbourhood of from 50° to 190°C, and to dissolve either one or both of a coupler and a developer represented by the general formula (I) at a fused state thereof.
- A typical process for the preparation of the heat sensitive recording sheet of the present invention will be described below. The coupler usable in the present invention include various materials which develop color by a fusion reaction thereof with a developer represented by the general formula (I).

The method of mixing and method of coating described as above are not limited to the heat sensitive recording sheet of the present invention. For example, the coupler and/orthe heat fusible material are mixed with a binder solution, and separately the developer and/or the heat fusible material are mixed with a binder solution. Then both mixtures thus obtained may be mixed together for coating on the substrate, or these two mixtures may be separately coated on the substrate to be coated thereon twice. Both mixtures may be coated on the same surface or surfaces separate from each other of the substrate, or may be coated on different substrates respectively.
